Woman's Reign.

Man never appreciates his inferiority
to woman so thoroughly as when he
stands before the altar in the presence
of an audience Of friends, and hears the
clergyman make him husband. Nine
out Of ten men in such position trem-
Bile as il they we're about to be arrested
for murder, while nine out Of ten women
20 through the ceremony as gracefully
as if it we're an everyday occurrence.
And it is this timorous creature in a
dress suit that promises to protect the
calm and placid angel whose orange
blossoms are her aursola. What deli
cious sarcasm there is 10 the thought !
And in after life, when the husband gets
torn up by care. and when little trou-
bic comes TO steal away his peace Of
mind, how is it then ? The woman whom
he promises to protect becomes his pro-
tecter. She sees sunshine through the
clouds. She smooths out the wrinkled
brow Of care. She props up his flag
ging spirits. She puts new life into his
bosom, new hope into his soul, and he
goes forth in the morning with new
strength and new zeal 10 wrestle ~.sh
life and its responsibilities. Woman
may be the weaker vessel, but she isn't
broken up, and doesn't go TO pieces as
soon AS man.

Relics Of the Great Tragedy.


saw the other day two of the most
curious and interesting relics of the
greatest tragedy in American history.
They arc the pistol with which John
Wilkes Booth shot President Lincoln
aud the dagger he held in his hand
when be lcaped from the box to the
stage of the theatre, crying, "Sic sem
per tyrannis p These relics are pre-
served in bureau of one of the great
departments of the government, and with
them is the bullet that struck Mr.. lin
coin down The pistol is the most in
teresting Of the lot. IL is one Of the
kind known as the Derriuger, made in
Philadelphia, which was very famous all
through the south and southwest thirty
years ago.
The one in question is of beautiful
workmanship. Its barrel is only two
inches in length, and the bullet weighs
about quarter ofan ounce. The entire
length of tho weapon is but four inches.
Its mounting is Of silver, and the lock
is one of the finest and most perfect
pieces of workmanship have ever seen,
even in these weapons, which were very
expensive and elaborate. The bullet is
much battered, and was evidently driven
into the muzzlo (for tho pistol is muz-
zle loadcr) by the use Of mallet and
iron loading rod. Considering tho heavy
charge Of powder under the bullet, be-
fore it was fred, the latter must have
been only half an inch from the muzzle,
and could easily have been touched with
ones little finger inserted into the bar
rel The marks Of the riding 10 the
barrel are clearly visible on the bullet.
which was very much fattened from
striking the skull. Altogether, more

found there receptacle for pcrcussi on
caps, which had evidently been over
looked, and upon opening il ! found "A
solitary cap, which Booth had evidently
put there himself, intending if by any
chance the one on the tube of the pistol
exploded without firing it, to have an
other ready TO his hand.

For what ayails this eager space;

And what Is mine shall know my facs.
Asleep, awake, by night or day,

No wind eau drive my bark astray,

And garner up its fruit of tears

Can keep my own away from me.

He Smiles at His Prospects.
Says the Phoebe Record: Bishop
Lee, of Panaca looks so contented
since he heard that John Taylor
was dead. When he smiles his
mouth flies open like a patent fly
trap and, were it not for his ears,
which look like guide posts, he
would be all mouth. The bishop
has some pretentions toward the
vacant chair of the church, and if
there is any possible cl ancs for him
to gull the balance out OF it he will
do SO. If Lee gets to fill the vacant
chair President Cleveland will:
have to succumb. Why shouldn't
he smile.

A New Deal I'm Railroad Rates
A Chicago paper states that the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company
has published notice to the effect
that it declines to accept a regular
proportion of the through rates on
West-bound Pacific Coast business
If such rate is below its tariff. The
meaning of this rule is said to be
that the railroad in question will not
participate in West-bound through
rates that are less proportionately
for the longer that for the shorter
haul. On the other hand it is
stated that it will accept in East
bound California business it's pro-
portion of what ever the Pacific
railroads make. The reason given
for the difference is the opinion of
counsel that the railroad in
question cannot make lower rates
for longer than a shorter haul,
but may accept its proportion of
such rate when made by railroads
which are exempted from the rule.
The view of the Interstate Com
merce law, to which the Pennsylva-
MA Railroad is said to have COM
mitted itself, would give the Pacific
Coast the ideal railroad rates, for
which few had dared even to hone
that is to say, low rates to the
East and high rates from that sec
ion.

A NEW LEASE OF LIFE.

When one has been suffering the agoniee
OF a severe attack Of rheumatism, neural
gia or sciatica, and relief comes, il seems IA
il new lease of life had been granted.
Such have been the feelings of thousands
who, after trying physicians and number
less remedies, have used Athlophoros and
found to their great joy that this medicine
really did cure these diseases.
367 Fulton st., Brooklyn, N. y.
After suffering for nearly two years with
a continuous attack of rheumatism; after
trying almost every specific, domestic and
foreign, which the credulity of wise man,
or a fool, might lead one to trust in, it was
a double pleasure to me to find a remedy
which, originating in the famous Getty Of
Elms s'--thel home of my ancestors and
its first founders-has proved so invalua.
BILE a blessing. 1t is nearly six months
since was led to trace out the significance
of that word Athlophoros. IL has proved
to me, in a good degree, renewer of my
former vigor and strength, so that | have
been enabled TO move about with almost
youthful activity, and 10 feel, while ap-
preaching my "three score years and ten"
that have new hold on life | believe
your philosophy of the disease to be correct
that it has its origin in the blood, and that
your remedy touches those Joints and mus
cles, loosening the nodes, which have been
brought into subsection to this dreadful
disease, and sets them free rs no other
remedy that | have tried | have been
cautious for so long a time in recommend
ing It to others till | had tried its efficacy
10 my own case; and | am now free to
state the estimate put upon il, as
the safest and most efficient cure /
have any knowledge of.
